Webinar Announcement: Behind the Quotation Price and the Pitfalls of 'Cheap Security Assessments'

Recommended for Heads of IT and Development departments in end-user companies.

Why Price and Quality Differences Are Hard to Understand For those involved in budget approval and ordering decisions, correctly understanding the meaning of "low price" is a vital perspective for preventing post-incident costs and loss of external trust.

"The price gap in quotes is large, and I don't know which one to choose." "I cannot determine if a cheap assessment is truly problem-free." These issues occur in many workplaces.

Price differences are mainly determined by the following elements: - Depth of assessment (how far the verification goes) - Engineer skills (whether they can verify from an attacker's perspective) - Existence of manual verification (whether it is tool-based or human-tested)

However, these differences are difficult to judge from a quote alone, and there are many cases where judgments are made based solely on budget and deadline without having an axis for comparison.

Risks of Selecting Low-Cost Vendors Prioritizing costs and choosing low-cost assessments often leads to missing important vulnerabilities. In tool-centric assessments, risks that are difficult for humans to detect, such as business logic flaws, defects in authorization controls, and API design issues, remain undetected.

There are actual cases where the difference in the comprehensiveness of the diagnosis is only realized after an incident occurs. Decisions made based on "cheapness" can later become a major risk.

Explaining Selection Criteria to Avoid Mistakes In this seminar, we will explain points that cannot be judged by price or proposal content alone, and selection criteria to avoid mistakes. Specifically, we will cover the differentiation of diagnostic methods, the structure behind price differences, the pitfalls of low-cost assessments, and check points when comparing vendors.

Based on over 12,600 assessments performed by white hackers, we will convey the perspective that should be held before ordering. If you are struggling with how to choose a security assessment vendor, or are concerned about the comprehensiveness of your currently used assessment service, please join us. Through this seminar, you will take home an axis of judgment that allows you to explain the validity of price differences and the appropriateness of methods in your own words.
